This eyeshadow....I'm not saying it's a bad eyeshadow. But It's not one I would have voluntarily would have bought, I bought it in a quad that contained Paradisco and Creme Royal, and it looked nice in the quad. But the color payoff isn't that great, I have to keep packing it on my brush. It has a pretty charcoal color to, with gold sparkles. But nothing special but works well with Old Gold pigment by MAC, I'll give it that. And depoting for that little quad was such a hassle, but I had to or I would not use it. and letting a go to waste would hurt me more. Over all if I ran out this, I wouldn't cry. I would just find something better
